Hello, fellow readers!!!
Any suggestions on books for an 11 year old little guy? Preferably books with very little number of pictures or not at all.
Thank you

Edit:
I'm reading all of your comments. Thank you so very much, everyone. I really appreciate. Please keep them coming. I'm saving every single one of them <3

Without knowing what your kid has read or likes, here's some info about my kid:

My kid is currently reading:

Jeff Kinney's Diary of a Wimpy Kid
Zanib Mian's Meet the Maliks series
Zanib Mian's Planet Omar series
Marcus Rashford's The Breakfast Club Adventures series

All of these have illustrations though. I feel Diary of a Wimpy kid has most of them, while rest have less, but they still have them. You should take a look to see if that's acceptable.

Other books/series I have been recommended here, but haven't started yet:

R. L. Stine's Goosebumps
Brandon Sanderson's Alcatraz vs The Evil Librarians
Eion Cofler's Artemis Fowl
B. B. Alston's Supernatural Investigations
